Summary
Samira didn’t go out.
She worked around 60 hours a week, came home and slept, or sat on her futon reading journals until the words swam and her eyes burned. JAMA. NEJM. Anything that kept her mind occupied long enough to feel useful.
She told herself that it was enough.Lately, it hadn’t been.
Her mind had developed an annoying habit of drifting, usually when she was trying to focus on something important.
A line from a paper would blur, and she’d catch herself thinking about Jack. His gravelly voice, talking her through a procedure. The way he told her she’d done well, like it wasn’t just routine praise.
It made no sense to her. She tried to frame it as admiration. But it lingered, unhelpful and intrusive, like a symptom she couldn’t quite name.
So when Trinity texted drinks? followed by far too many emojis, Samira said yes before she could overthink it.

Summary
Samira knows that Jack Abbot, loopy from concussion and pain meds, will call her his best friend. Will tell her - eyes glazed and utterly, irresponsibly sincere – that she is the smartest person he has ever met; that he will give her anything in the world that she wants, all she has to do is ask.
Or the one where Samira Mohan asks Jack Abbot to give her a baby. Platonically, of course.

Summary
She knows that the vision of Jack Abbot holding a baby in his arms shouldn’t tug at her heartstrings the way it does. It shouldn’t make her actually consider having a baby as a 3rd-year resident, especially when he refuses to tell her what he wants.
But she can’t stop thinking about it. Can’t stop thinking about what he would look like holding a bottle. Can’t stop thinking about a child that is half-Samira and half-him. A baby with her hair and his nose. A baby with her eyes and his freckles.
Samira Mohan is overworked, underpaid, and so goddamn lonely she can feel the ache in her bones. Jack Abbot knows the suffocating, marrow-deep sting of loneliness better than anyone else.
They both know that this is a bad idea.
